"If you're staying here, since you don't plan to get involved in politics, all your expenses will be reimbursed as employee benefits. You don't need to bring any luggage; I've already asked Lucy and the others to bring you some underwear when they went shopping today."
"As for your usual coats and daily necessities, you can buy them tomorrow. There are plenty of people in the family who are free, so I can show you around. Your current clothing style is quite normal, so I didn't ask them to prepare them for you."
"You'll be staying here from now on. I'll be here in the evenings too. As I said before, once you've settled into life here, you can travel or do whatever you want, it's up to you. However, considering your food, clothing, and lodging, it's best if you stay at the inn. Also..."
Esdeath glanced at Sheele and the others and said softly, "Normally, the Imperial Arms are kept by my husband. In this world, the katana is fine, but it's best to put Sheele's scissors away. You can keep them in your own room. Understand?"
"Um... probably..."

Chapter 347 Where Black Eyes Went, Akali Set Off (Please Subscribe~)
Leone and the others are feeling extremely complicated right now. There's no other reason than that their mental preparations were suddenly completely destroyed, and before they could even recover, everything was arranged for them. It would be strange if they could come to their senses.
"So that's why you had us write down the measurements this afternoon. But what was this 'suitable for Kurohime' thing you mentioned?"
Esdeath gave a knowing smile. Although she knew Esdeath wouldn't harm them, she still felt a strange sense of mischief. Esdeath chuckled and said, "Lucy, if any of you are going shopping tomorrow, take this girl with you to pick one out..."
"What should I choose?"
Kurohime silently watched Esdeath, who chuckled and said, "Take her to pick out a schoolbag."
"Huh?" xn
"Pfft..." xn
In that case, everyone knows what Esdeath was planning for Kurome. Indeed, Kurome looks to be of school age, but in that world, she was a killing machine from a young age and was also tormented by illness, so she never had the chance to go to school properly.
Black Eyes blinked. Going to school? The word wasn't unfamiliar to her, but it wasn't very familiar either, because when she was raised as an assassin as a child, she also learned knowledge, including how to kill and fight, as well as some normal cultural common sense.
The thought of going to school didn't bother Kurohime, but it made her thoughts drift back to a long, long time ago, when she and Akame and the others went on missions together, studied and trained together. Time seemed to fly by, and in the blink of an eye, only she and Akame remained in the assassination squad. They had all grown up and become founding fathers.
Yuko Ichihara said with a smile, "This arrangement is quite suitable. But speaking of which, if Kurohime were to come to school with you, Sora and the others would definitely start arguing about which school Kurohime should go to. There was a lot of noise when Touka was choosing a school before."
"Isn't that great? But you can just let her stay at Shuchiin, Katagiri, and Sumeragi. Also, are you still not convinced?"
"Huh?! Another world?!"
Seeing Dortya's astonished expression, Justice and the others were all amazed. "Goodness, your thought process is too amazing!" Mine's eye twitched and she said, "Hey, everything here is arranged, and you're just getting started?"
"what?!"
Esdeath sighed and said, "With your reaction, I find it hard to believe in your abilities."
"Your Majesty! Anyone would be surprised!"
Esdeath said with a headache, "It depends on your performance in the future. Also, you will be with me from now on. Kurohime, you can stay here to study. You can come over to help when I need you. You will come to the morning meeting once a week. You will be in charge of research. Come back with me in the evening."
"Yes!"xn
Lucifer tilted his head and said, "This is the alchemist you wanted to keep? He seems..."
Esdeath whispered, "Her Teigu... Remi..."
"Hmm? You're not saying that her Imperial Arms is somehow related to me, are you?"
"Pretty much. Blood absorption. It's attached to the teeth and can suck people dry. It allows you to quickly recover from injuries and restore your strength by absorbing blood, while also increasing your power. By the way, this isn't her original form. She's an alchemist who constantly modifies herself and also uses Imperial Arms to transform herself into her current form."
Everyone gave Dortya a strange look. Najendan casually took out a document and picked out a picture. The woman in the picture was tall and had a great figure. She was dressed sexily and had bat-like wings behind her.
Najenda said in a deep voice, "If the data is correct, this is what you used to look like. A very long time has passed since then, but instead of aging, you have become like this. Is your Imperial Arm still your research?"
Lucifer beckoned, and the documents floated over. Everyone glanced at them and their eyes twitched. The sexy mature woman had transformed into this loli-like figure; she was something else.
Dortya opened her mouth, but then, considering the terrifying strength and identities of these people, as well as their current stance, she sighed and said, "That's all. This is also my purpose... I've always longed for immortality, which is why I've been researching this."
"You really dare to dream big, but it looks like you succeeded?"
Dortya shook her head and said, "No, I can only say that I am long-lived now, but I am far from being immortal. The reason why I joined Sheila before was because it would be more convenient for me to carry out my experiments. Wild hounds don't need a reason to kill."
Dortya's frank attitude impressed Leone and the others, who nodded in approval. At least she had shown her full sincerity. Moreover, putting aside Esdeath's power and strength, knowing about Esdeath's terrifying sisters now meant that going against Esdeath would truly be going against the gods.
Remilia propped her chin on her hand and said, "? It's similar to a vampire, but usually when a vampire drinks blood, it turns the person into its familiar. That's why vampires either drink all the blood from a person or store blood. This Imperial Arm is quite interesting."
"So, Dortya, from now on, just work honestly for the Empire. What you want, I will give you sooner or later. I know what you're going to ask. You think it's difficult?"
After a two-second pause, Dortya patted her chest with delight and said, "Your Majesty! Rest assured! I, Dortya, am wholeheartedly devoted to the Empire and am absolutely the number one loyal subject!"
Looking at Dortya, who had absolutely no backbone, everyone was helpless. You're really honest. Soon, everyone started chatting. They started by asking Esdeath, and later, because of Leone and the others' personalities, they quickly became familiar with each other and lost their initial restraint.
Meanwhile, in the other cabin, Soraka said earnestly, "Akali must be handed over to Mr. Baiyu!"
Akali's hand, which was resting on the wardrobe handle in the room, froze, and her eyes twitched. Katarina, on the other hand, clenched her fist with anticipation. Everything was finally about to be answered, but...
"So, you want to change your clothes?"
"No, this is the door."
"I know this is a door, a cabinet door, you...."
"Quiet, it's time to leave."
"Hadi?"

Chapter 348 Awkward Katarina, Busy Akali (Please subscribe~)
Katarina's feelings were extremely complicated at this moment. She had been brought here by Akali, but that wasn't the key point. The key point was that Katarina was first shocked by what had happened, and then she saw several people she would never forget for the rest of her life.
That wasn't the key point. The most crucial thing was that she instinctively pulled out two daggers, and everyone, including Kaguya and the others, stared at her calmly without saying a word. For a moment, the atmosphere became eerily calm, except for Katarina, who stood frozen in place like an idiot, holding the daggers.
She's in a bind; letting go is bad enough, but making a move would be suicide. Someone please save her! Even a punch would do! Just break this deadlock! She's so embarrassed!
After a long pause, Akali glanced at Katarina and said, "If you want to take action, our shop has very good quality products. At most, you can stick it to the ceiling; we won't hit you on the roof."
Katarina was also quite embarrassed by what she heard, but it was better than before. She had to save face. Katarina sheathed her dagger and said with a complicated look, "It's just an assassin's instinct. So, what exactly happened? And who are you people?"
A493 Carly didn't say anything, but just walked to the side, found a place to sit down, and stretched. She understood a saying once again: nowhere is better than home. As soon as she got home, even just sitting in a chair gave her a feeling of complete relaxation.
Lucifer didn't say anything, just waved his hand. Katarina was stunned. However, because she was mentally prepared and had a strong mental fortitude, although Katarina was inwardly turbulent, she didn't show any particular shock to her worldview on the surface.
So the people she attacked with Talon were such terrifying beings? She was truly thankful she wasn't dead. She wondered what those people were thinking back then—were they in a good mood? Or did they simply refrain from killing her because they were all women? And Talon was still lying there.
Akali leaned back in her chair with her eyes closed and said, "If you know what's going on, come over quickly, don't just stand there blocking the door."
Katarina didn't say anything and sat down opposite Akali. She felt that although she and Akali had bickered, Akali was the only one she was familiar with in the room.
Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You know everything you need to know. We also know very well why Akali brought you here. Don't worry, now that you're here, just treat us like family. The reason we attacked you before was only because you and that guy took the initiative to cause trouble."
Katarina sighed and said, "Tyron is still lying down, but you guys are much more easygoing than I expected."
Yuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "You're mistaken. But if you were to choose to take action directly, it's uncertain whether you'd be so easygoing. Although we've been in a good mood lately, some of our sisters still have a bit of a temper."
Akali said softly, "You'll stay here for about a month. We'll come to pick you up whenever we leave Ionia. You've seen the memories, so you should know some things. This world is different from ours, so put away your killing intent."
Katarina glanced at Lucifer and the others out of the corner of her eye, then nodded and said, "If there is no danger, there is naturally no need to use force. This is the basic quality of an assassin."
Akali narrowed her eyes, then turned her head and said, "Esdeath, congratulations."
"Although taking over the world would be a piece of cake, thanks anyway. Soraka still hasn't come?"
"No, Soraka still says she can only come over around Christmas if she has enough results. Are these your assassination squad?"
Esdeath nodded, and Akali glanced at her before turning back to ask, "Is your husband in the kitchen?"
"Hmm, you need to talk to your husband?"
Akali sighed, picked up a bag from the side, and placed it on the table with a particularly complicated look in her eyes. Lucifer and the others' eyes twitched; they seemed to have a vague feeling that things were not so simple.
"here it is..."
"Sigh...Soraka often writes...situation reports...whenever she feels something."
"Hey...you mean a love letter, right..."
Akali sighed and said, "Soraka doesn't usually have many hobbies, but one of them lately is expressing and describing her feelings through writing."
Pandemonica pushed up her glasses and said somewhat strangely, "So, you're not saying this whole place is like that, are you?"
"That's right. Soraka might see a couple and get inspired to write something when she gets home, or she might be talking about family matters during dinner and suddenly feel inspired. In short, she writes at least one piece a day, sometimes a few pages, sometimes just a few sentences, sigh..."
Harley Quinn paused for a moment and said, "While I can understand Soraka, but... so much? I can't even write it all! Wait... suddenly I feel like my love has been challenged!"
Lucifer said irritably, "Save your breath, what's the point of comparing? Besides, you're always clinging to your husband, what haven't you said to him? Just look at how you address him, your way of addressing him is unique in the family."
Harley Quinn clicked her tongue and said, "Hey! These are two different things! No way... I also want to write a love letter to my darling honey, but I've never written one before. How do you write one? Hmm? I overheard Masayoshi and the others chatting earlier. Yuuko, did you write one for your honey?"
"Uh... this guy! What do you guys usually talk about at your parties?!"
"Just say whatever comes to mind. By the way, Akali, how many days are you staying here?"
Akali sighed and said, "I can't stay any longer. My next stop is Ionia. I still have to meet Lady Karma. I might bring Lady Karma with me next time. Soraka might come too. I'll have dinner and say a few words to my husband before heading back."
"I also need to bring one for Soraka, and breakfast for us tomorrow. According to the itinerary, we might arrive in Ionia by tomorrow evening, so we don't need lunch."
"So busy?"
"There's nothing I can do about it. Oh, by the way, there's something I need to tell you."
"Hmm?"

Chapter 349 Akali's Deal, the Outrageous Soraka (Please Subscribe~)
Katarina appeared nonchalant, but her gaze subtly shifted towards Akali. She knew very well that Akali was either talking about family matters or things from their world, so no one would believe her if she said she didn't care.
Akali thought for a moment and said, "Three things, one family matter, and two matters concerning our world. First, Lucie, do you remember the female mage you sensed in the Noxian capital?"
Yukari Yakumo tilted her head and said, "I remember her. I even saw her. To you, she's definitely very strong, but actually she's still a bit lacking. What's wrong?"
"During this time, I could always feel a gaze watching me, almost imperceptibly. Before, I might have thought it was an assassin or someone simply monitoring me, but now it seems it might be her. She must have realized our relationship."
Zdlarda chuckled and said, "According to what I've heard before, if Noxus is now governed by the council and the three branches of government are separated, then apart from that brute, the other two should not only be powerful, but also incredibly cunning. It's quite normal to guess that."
Akali nodded and said, "That's right. So, I feel that she might have come to investigate herself. Because you can tell that she doesn't want others to know about her existence. That's why we didn't see such a person when she saw us off today, not even a representative. They must not be united."
Katarina was also taken aback. She knew of the existence of the Trifalli Council, but she didn't know who the third party was, or what kind of power and strength he possessed. Judging from this, the Noxus leadership didn't seem to be in harmony.
Tsunade asked, somewhat puzzled, "So what do you mean?"
"If that's the case, she's definitely observing us in secret, or even following us. She hopes to find you, or rather, to find that massive magical upheaval that erupted on Runeterra. She certainly wouldn't dare follow us to Ionia, nor would she dare to attack us."
Akali then looked at Katarina. Katarina wasn't stupid; she frowned and said, "You mean, the third party's real target is me, because she knows I'll be brought here by you?"
“That’s right. So you have two choices. First, stay with us, but you’ll have to go back to Noxus sooner or later. To become the third party, her methods are beyond your imagination. Second, make a deal with her and bring her here.”
Everyone was taken aback. Katarina said in a deep voice, "Me? I don't know her. I don't even know her name. How can we talk about a transaction?"
“This isn’t just about the two of you; it’s also a deal with me. If you bring her here, I won’t let Lucy and the others lay a hand on her, nor will I blacklist you so you can never come here again.”
"But I want you to get information out of her. Ask away, ask as much as you can, until you touch her bottom line. She will never dare to lay a hand on you. Tell me what you get, and that way you will rise to the top, I will get the information I need, and she will get the way to get here."
Katarina said in a deep voice, "What do you think..."
"Don't worry, what she can really say is most likely unrelated to Noxus. What I want to know is what she's hiding. She'll tell you when she gets here, if she doesn't want to be blacklisted. As a sharer of the secrets, you can also gain status and benefits. Besides, I have absolutely no interest in Noxus's military secrets."
Katarina nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make the deal with you, but I don't know what she can say."
"Nobody knows, which is why it's meaningful. The second thing, Lucy, Lord Karma and the others might come in a while."
"Come on, come on. Aren't you the boss's wife too? You don't need to tell us when you invite customers to eat at the restaurant."
"No, what I mean is, if Lady Karma and the others come, then... never mind, I'll play it by ear. As for the last thing, Lucy, you should talk to Soraka as much as possible and ask her to tone it down!"
Lucifer and the others were stunned; they rarely saw Akali so agitated. Akali covered her face and said, "Ever since the previous meeting, Soraka has been concerned about this. I don't know what will happen in Ionia this time, but... where is Soraka going next...?"
0Request flowers
"Hmm? Tell me slowly, where is Soraka going?"
"Ixtal and other places aren't the key! The key is to cross Shurima along Ixtal, and then Mount Targon!"
Hearing that word, even Katarina's eyes twitched. She wondered why Akali had been so excited earlier, and now that she thought about it, it was true—they...were going to the land of the gods?!
Lucifer swallowed hard and said, "So? I don't know what happened, but the word 'giant god' just feels off."
Akali sighed and said, "Specifically... let's call Mengmeng and the others down. It'll be a good opportunity for them to meet."
Katarina paused for a moment and said, "Mengmeng? Mengmeng again? You said before that no one in Noxus is trustworthy except for Mengmeng. How come I don't know that there is such a person in Noxus?"
